This won't be a very exciting post, I just want to show off my house.
(Aside: has anyone else ever made a Sim of a person, had a falling out with them while not playing the game for a while, played the game, and been tempted to kill off that person's Sim? I haven't actually done it, because I feel
real-life guilty at the thought of killing someone's avatar. Like, what if it's bad real life karma? What if they end up dying in a tragic stove fire accident because I stuck their Sim in a room with a stove and no door? I couldn't live with myself. I realize this is pretty much the most ridiculous way of feeling ever, but there you go.)
So, my house!
 |
| It has a tower! |
 |
| It's surrounded by a moat, too. |
 |
| The second floor. |
 |
| The ground floor. |
 |
| The third floor of the tower. |
 |
| Top of the tower! |
 |
| There's a skeleton maid! |
 |
| Typical guy, watching the football. |
 |
| The cat and skeleton maid don't get along. |
 |
| This zombie was really upset it couldn't get into the house. It kept making angry noises at the door and doing the Sims "wtf dude" hand wave. |
 |
| This fairy Sim brought his kid to the club! That seems extremely irresponsible. |
 |
| Fairy Sim! |
I don't have a screenshot of it, but the guy Sim is a witch and his lifetime wish is to be a Zombie Master, and the fairy witch has a lifetime wish of being the Cat Herder. It's pretty ridiculous.
Your Sims game is fancier than my Sims game.
ReplyDeleteExpansion packs! Although my spiral stairs are a download from a website dedicated to mods. You can make your basic game almost as fancy with downloadable, user-created content. No fairies/witches/werewolves without the expansion pack, though.
DeleteI've rarely played Sims, because I don't seem to have the patience. Your hours looks really awesome though!
ReplyDeleteWhen I play I usually spend loads of time creating a house, but then when I start to actually play I get bored and stop.
Also, I'm awful at it. First time I ever played I made the dad cook, and he set the house on fire and killed off a neighbor. His urn was left on the kitchen floor and each time any of my Sims would walk past it, they'd cry.. so they were perpetually sad. Not a good start!
Haha, yeah. I walk away from the game a lot, since they have free will. Although they refuse to use to toilet without being told...
DeleteYou just have to have a plan for how to make their life goals come about. I made my zombie master Sim practice until he found out how to make zombies, and I keep buying cats for the Cat Herder Sim. They can also travel, where there are puzzles and things if I get too bored.
Mine doesn't have pets or travel puzzles, but I play almost exclusively just to build the houses. I do like letting them go to social places and seeing how they interact with a whole bunch of people on their own, though. But I always do have to tell them to use the bathroom. Haha.
